Morphology

enragement = enrage (transparent) = en + rage + ment

The noun is a regular nominalization of the verb 'enrage' with '-ment', denoting the state or result of being enraged.

Etymology

Enragement comes from the simple word rage, which means 'great anger'. The prefix en- means 'to make' and the ending -ment turns it into a noun for a state, so enragement is the state of being filled with intense anger.
